Hello everyone, by way of another food blog I note that our fellow C&Z Barbara has completed another round of chemotherapy. I invite everyone to join Jen of http://userealbutter.com to raise a glass in honour of Barbara and her family with a wish for good health and happiness for many years to come.

Thank you CarlaH and Swan. I was so surprised this morning to wake up to such lovely kind posts by Jen and some of my other food blogger friends. Food and wine lovers are the nicest people in the world I think._________________Barbara

Very best wishes from someone you don't know, but has been through her own similar ordeal. From what I have learned, you have dealt with all this with unusual grace. A toast to your happiness, health, and lots of bubbly with your loved ones.

suzy, welcome to the We Doth Love Barbara Fan Club _________________"I've never accepted the external appearance of things as the whole truth. The world is much more elaborate than the nerves of our eye can tell us." - James Gleeson

Thank you lovely people for the good wishes. I wish you were all here to share my bubbles. I do get to visit with Madame when we go to Sydney in August. A fun day to look forward to._________________Barbara
